Ilketshall St Andrew

Because East Anglia's churches are built from flint rubble, it was impossible for the Victorians to scrape away the internal plaster, and thus a great wealth of medieval wall paintings have been left to us. They are still regularly being discovered under layers of later whitewash. These are some of the most interesting.
